GRAND BAIE, Mauritius, Aug. 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alphamin Resources Corp. (TSXV:AFM) ("Alphamin" or the "Company") is pleased to announce an update on progress at its Bisie Tin Project.

Construction of the Company's 80.75% owned Bisie Tin Project is currently on schedule and 75% complete. Commissioning of the process plant is scheduled for Q1 2019. Equity financing raised to date together with the US$80m credit facility is currently projected to take the Company through to commercial production.

Key project highlights include:

?Safety Over 1 million-man hours worked by over 600 employees with no
lost time injuries reported.
?Mine construction Progressing ahead of schedule with 1709 development meters
complete out of a total of 2,700.
?Process plant Construction ahead of schedule with 256 tons of steel erected with
majority of kit required now on site.
?Infrastructure Construction of the Company's 36Km access road to site and
airstrip is now complete with project deliveries getting through to site
without difficulty.
?Logistics and procurement 73% of project loads have been delivered to the mine site. 
Procurement is 90% complete.
?Social and community  Social development investments targeting over 1500 households for
livelihoods and community infrastructure projects continue. Site
security and community relations have been strengthened further by
the peaceful and voluntary migration of the remaining 500 artisanal
miners from Alphamin's concession in late 2017 and early 2018.

The recent Ebola outbreak in the North Kivu province is being monitored closely and strict protocols have been put in place to reduce the risk of transmission at Bisie. The outbreak is located some 1,200km from Bisie by road. To date there has been no impact on the Company's operations.

The Company has also filed its interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and Management Discussion and Analysis ? quarterly highlights, which are available on SEDAR.com.
